A runaway coal train in the Hunter Valley sped uncontrollably for 20 kilometers at speeds up to 90 km/h—far exceeding safe limits—before grinding to a halt on an uphill grade after rolling backward 5 km. Investigators are probing brake failures, train specs, crew actions, and organizational protocols to determine root causes and prevent recurrence. Pacific National is fully cooperating as they review procedures, maintenance, and audio logs. A final report will be presented to NSW Parliament to strengthen rail safety nationwide.
